MRT2 on track despite terrain challenges


The MRT Chan Sow Lin station which goes down five levels to 40m is the second deepest underground station in the MRT2 Line after MRT Ampang Park (43m). The two cylindrical contraptions on the bottom surface are the tunnel boring machines (TBMs).

The latest addition to the infrastructure to further improve connectivity – the MRT Sungai Buloh-Serdang-Putrajaya (SSP) Line – is well underway for completion in 2022, despite a number of technical difficulties due to its underground geological challenges.
